This was needed only to support libtool in case objects ended in .lo instead of .o, but we dropped libtool, so drop this too.
This directory was an experiment to use floating-point operations to implement the math library when a processor had a floating-point instruction set. The experiment was a failure in that some of the algorithms chosen (e.g. recursive algorithms for sin/cos, etc..) are too simple and do not provide proper accuracy nor handle very large or very small inputs adequately. The code is considered moth-balled. The stable math library routines can be found in libm/math and the configuration option to use this has been removed. If you wish to experiment with the concept, please feel free and report back if you have major improvements.
